Well, I have found a solution how to avoid this misfunction. Here I have used "fsockopen" php function.
First, I use "OpenSSL" to export public key from the certificate. Then encrypted variables string data (i.e. name=myname&country=mycountry) that should be send with openssl, using this key.
Next, I have created string for "fsockopen" function, including post-method, headers string and encrypted variables string (some sample: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php#91554).
Generally that's all! The response was as I expect!

The new year is coming.. I went away to drink and have fun.. :)
